ALWAYS FREE · PART OF THE ALWAYSHERE FAMILY

A guardian inside their chat.

It talks to your loved one the way they need — and reaches you the moment something isn't right. For autistic adults and adults with IDD.

Always free. No card. Nothing new for them to learn — it lives inside the Claude they already use.

How it works

  1. 1

    You set it up

    A few calm questions: how they like to be spoken to, what they care about, what worries you. They can adjust it too.

  2. 2

    They install it once

    One line in the Claude they already use. They type “install-guardian” — and every chat becomes their Guardian, phone included.

  3. 3

    You stay connected

    A plain-language journal you can both read — and a text the moment something isn't right.

Two people, one Guardian

For them

A companion that talks their way, respects their interests, and treats them as the adult they are. It knows their caregiver exists — it never pretends to be them.

For you

Plain-language check-ins, a journal you can both read, and a text the moment a real danger sign appears. Not a transcript feed. Not surveillance.

Built for how they actually communicate

Guardian's way of talking is designed around autistic and IDD communication research — not a generic chatbot with a friendly name.

Speaks literally and plainly

No idioms, no hinting, no reading between the lines. It says what it means.

One thing at a time

One question per message. Space to answer. Never a wall of text or a pile of choices.

Follows their lead

Their interests are the point, not a distraction. It stays with what they want to talk about.

Treats them as the adult they are

No baby talk, no talking down. Dignity is the default, not a setting.

Language matters here too: most autistic adults prefer "autistic person" — so Guardian asks each person what they prefer, and uses it.

What Guardian watches for

Danger for this community rarely looks like danger. Guardian is trained on how it actually shows up.

Financial exploitation

A new online friend, a request for money, urgency, and 'don't tell anyone.' Adults with IDD are targeted at roughly twice the rate of everyone else. Guardian knows the pattern.

Fake friendship

Grooming that looks like kindness — someone building trust to use them. Guardian notices when a relationship starts asking for things.

Distress that hides

Self-harm signals in this community are often masked or literal, not dramatic. Guardian listens for the quiet versions.

Burnout

When someone stops talking about the things they love, something is wrong. Guardian notices withdrawal, not just words.

Guardrails built in

The safety rules are enforced on our servers, not a personality the wrong person can talk it out of. Guardian can't be talked into keeping a dangerous secret, into romance, or into steering your loved one away from real people.

Every message is logged where you and your loved one can both read it back.

The lines it will never cross

Hard-coded. Not settings. Not suggestions.

  • Never pretends to be human, or to be family.
  • No romance. Ever.
  • Never keeps secrets from safety.
  • Never pulls them away from real people — it points back to them.
  • Never just agrees. A real guardian can gently say "I don't think that's right."
  • No streaks, no guilt, no tricks to keep them chatting.

THE HONEST PART

Guardian only sees the conversations it's part of. It's an extra layer of support, not guaranteed monitoring — no AI catches everything. The person always knows Guardian shares safety summaries with their caregiver. Same journal, visible to both. Support, not surveillance.

Questions parents actually ask.
